• "Isn't Alabama politics grand? They basically started expanding the lanes for (by far) the least populated directions first and saved the spokes with the largest populations for last. It's really nice though whenever I have to go north of Birmingham on I-65. You get 3-lanes forever north of town as you drive through all the trees." -- grogck

• "I've traveled many roads and that area of I-65 beginning in Shelby County to I-459 is the most pathetic excuse for roadwork I've seen. I always feel like I'm tearing my car up when I drive on that portion of I-65. When I switch counties coming out of Shelby on the southbound lane, it's like going from coach to first class. Sorry to gripe but that merger off of I-459 onto I-65 towards Montgomery...you have like a second to merge into traffic - very dangerous. I hope they get the roadwork problem solved this time." -- Morph Dusseldorf

• "This should be an interesting 9-12 months on I-65 and US 31..

I have hit an infamous sinkhole, pothole, fishing hole, watering hole on Southbound 65 after entering off 31.

I called 911 after my experience almost a year ago... Could have killed someone.. Hurt my Chevy.." -- insuldad
